Chapter 5

Time flies by, and it does not leave any unique traces in the ordinary and chaotic urban life.

Just like Tong Yan's secret to sù Xia Qi that day, it was just in exchange for her momentary shock, and after learning all the details, she just let out a light sigh, and then she told Tong Yan:

All young and ignorant feelings can only teach people to grow, and clinging to them is not a proof of its loyalty, but a sign of its fragility and stupidity. Real life makes people crave warmth, and there is only one direct and practical embodiment of this warmth, that is, marriage.

Marriage can be divided into many kinds, and in the current social context, the clearest and most common form of combination is that two people are evenly matched and each takes what he needs.

In the end, she said: Tong Yan, there is too much difference between you and Ling Zesheng, you are not suitable. So, I think you avoided him, it was the right choice

Tong Yan didn't know why she still thought of these things after more than half a month, especially when she stayed up all night and was about to go to bed.

Between brushing her teeth, she looked at the young girl with an unkempt face and a numb expression in the mirror, and she really didn't even pull the corners of her mouth.

took a sip of water, flushed off the foam in his mouth, and when he lowered his head and was about to spit it out, he saw from the reflection in the mirror that Lazy was taking leisurely steps into the bathroom, and then it stood next to its cat litter box, stretched out a paw and scratched the basin, turned around and howled at Tong Yan's back.

"Okay, the concubine will give you a new cat litter right away!" Tong Yan slurred a word, then spit out the water in his mouth, wiped his mouth with a towel, and picked up a shovel and tweezers from the shelf next to him

The fate of the shovel officer~~~ Boom.

After dealing with the lazy poop, Tong Yan put the outside box he had eaten in the past few days into a garbage bag and put it on the steps at the door of his house, and took it out when he was ready to go out.

But when she opened the door and saw the other two garbage bags piled up on the steps, she suddenly remembered, as if she had thought the same thing two days ago. Huh

Just then, the phone rang.

Ran back into the house in three or two steps, and finally found her phone in the gap between the bedside table and the bed. A glance at the caller ID shows that it is an unfamiliar number in the local area.

Who is it?

Tong Yan was a little puzzled, and picked it up: "Hey, hello, may I ask who you are?" ”

"Tong Yan?" A deep and clear male voice came from the other end of the phone, "I'm Ling Zesheng." ”

――

An hour later, Tong Yan stood in the corridor and sorted out her appearance in front of the reflective elevator door, when the sign of Yunao Media was hung less than five meters away from her in a straight line.

Glancing at the eye-catching signboard, Tong Yan turned his head and leaned his face towards the elevator door again-he put on light makeup when he went out, and the dark circles under his eyes should not look so scary, and he took a sip of the lipstick on his lips again, and practiced smiling before finally walking towards the slightly closed door.

The little sister at the front desk was very enthusiastic, and as soon as she saw Tong Yan, she led her straight to Ling Zesheng's office, and was very considerate to pour her a glass of water, and reminded her in a low voice when she put down the teacup: "Teacher Ling's phone call inside, you wait a minute." ”

Tong Yan responded, his eyes subconsciously glanced at the door of the cubicle, and suddenly he felt nervous about participating in the interview.

What is this called?

took out a notebook and pen from his bag, and heard a slight sound, Ling Zesheng stepped out of the cubicle with his mobile phone.

Tong Yan subconsciously stood up and faced him: "Ling, Teacher Ling." ”

Ling Zesheng was slightly stunned when he saw her movements, then smiled, waved his hand at her very casually, and motioned for her to sit down, "Don't be so formal, I'm nervous about you like this." After speaking, he sat on the single sofa next to Tong Yan.

You're nervous! It's good that you set the meeting place here!

Of course, Tong Yan only dared to say this in his heart, but he still maintained a gentle smile on his face, took out the printed script from his bag, handed it to Ling Zesheng, and then sat down again: "The script has been completed, because I don't have your email, so I sent it directly to Cheng Yuan."

This was the excuse she made up all the way, she thought she was impeccable, but now as soon as she said it, she met Ling Zesheng's cold and deep gaze, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Tong Yan instantly had the illusion of being debunked, she was stuck, her mind was blank, and she couldn't remember the lines behind her at all, and finally she pursed her lips, and held back the last sentence in a weak tone: "Look where you need to change?" ”

Ling Zesheng took the script easily, leaned back on the back of the sofa, and opened the cover very casually, looking very seriously.

There was silence all around, except for the faint sound of Ling Zesheng's occasional page turning.

Tong Yan, who has lived for 24 years, learned for the first time in his life what it is like to sit on pins and needles. With her hands on her knees, her eyes not knowing where to look, she looked back and forth three times in the small office before staring at the entire row of books on the shelves behind her desk.

Xiao Kai, whose eyes were full of various fonts, suddenly had a sense of immediacy to check his eyesight.

The word on the spine of the second row in the upper left corner is a seal, right?

What's recorded?

I can't understand a lot, and I can't understand it.

Tong Yan sighed silently in her heart, and was feeling that her IQ had been crushed again, when she heard Ling Zesheng's voice slowly floating over from the side.

"Haven't had a good night's rest lately?"

"Huh?" Tong Yan was slightly stunned and turned his head to look at him.

Ling Zesheng pointed to the dark green under her eyes, and his tone softened a little unconsciously, "Girls try not to stay up late, it's not good for your skin." ”

Tong Yan blinked, forcibly suppressed the urge to take a mobile phone to look at his face, and nodded: "Oh."

Ling Zesheng glanced at her lightly, lowered his head again to look at the script, and did not speak again.

I don't know when this silent torture will end, Tong Yan lowered his head and stared at his fingers, completely unable to suppress the anxiety in his heart.

After a while, Ling Zesheng gently put the script on the table: "After reading it, basically there is no big problem with the script, the report will be arranged in the next two days, and then the selection of actors and roles will begin, and Cheng Yuan will come back next week to confirm this matter." Then when he is busy with the things at hand, he is ready to start filming, and then he needs to follow the group, do you have any questions? ”

Tong Yan's brain had broken down early, and when he heard this, he reacted for a moment, and then shook his head dumbly: "It should be no problem." ”

"It's fine." Ling Zesheng nodded, "I want to fully enable newcomers in this drama, do you have any suitable candidates, can you recommend them?" ”

At this time, Tong Yan was still stuck in the question of "following the group" and couldn't extricate himself, and suddenly he was stuffed with a "recommended actor", and he was even more confused, and subconsciously asked: "Isn't this Teacher Ling's play?" ”

As soon as the words came out, he realized that he was speechless, and immediately covered his mouth.

Looking at her movements, Ling Zesheng smiled low and said, "I should only play the second male lead." ”

Tong Yan quickly recalled in his mind that the male number two in the script who was both righteous and evil, and a little domineering and a little scumbag, his first reaction was-Ling Zesheng is crazy?

"Just trying to break through." Ling Zesheng seemed to have guessed her thoughts, and chuckled, "I've been a little tired in recent years, and I want to retreat into the background." ”

Is he explaining?

Tong Yan was a little dazed, but he couldn't say nothing at his end, so he echoed twice, and said without being salty or light: "It's good to retreat behind the scenes, take a good rest." ”

Deeply feeling that he would be stupid to death if he stayed any longer, Tong Yan sat in place and was silent for a while before finally standing up, "Teacher Ling, if there is no problem, I will go back first, and if there is any problem with the script, you can contact me at any time to change it." ”

"Okay." Ling Zesheng also stood up and glanced in the direction of the door, "How do you go back?" ”

Tong Yan had already walked to the door: "Just take a taxi." ”

Ling Zesheng didn't speak, he walked straight past her and walked into the compartment inside.

Tong Yan's original heart relaxed instantly, and she thought he was going to send her

She really thinks too much.

Laughing at herself twice in her heart, her hand grabbed the doorknob and was just about to turn, when she heard a cool voice coming from behind her.

"I'm just about to go out, drop you off."

When the words fell, before Tong Yan had any other reaction, he directly opened the door and walked out, even blocking Tong Yan's refusal that had already come to his mouth.

All right.

――

Underground parking.

Tong Yan stood on the side of the car and only felt mixed feelings - sitting in the passenger seat or in the back?

According to her heart, Tong Yan must want to sit in the back seat, but isn't that Ling Zesheng the driver? No, no, no! But sitting in the passenger seat inevitably has some communication, which is completely tormenting for her.

What to do, what to do, what to do?

The college entrance examination application is not so entangled!

"What's the fuss? Hurry up and get in the car. ”

Ling Zesheng's voice came from the car, and as he spoke, he had rolled down the window close to Tong Yan's side, leaned over slightly, and helped her open the co-pilot's door.

Great, I don't have to choose at all now.

"Oh." Tong Yan answered, got in the car and closed the door.

The moment her body touched the seat, her whole body was wrapped in an unprecedented restraint, as if she had been pointed, and she couldn't move again.

"Where do you live?" Ling Zesheng held the steering wheel with one hand and looked in her direction.

Didn't you say by the way, why did you ask her directly where she lived?

Tong Yan's brain was a little knotted, and he paused for two seconds before he stammered and replied, "Xinyang Garden." Then, where are you going, Mr. Ling, just put me near the intersection in a while. ”

Ling Zesheng didn't speak, turned his gaze back and started the car.

There was silence all the way, Tong Yan froze in his chair and stared intently at the road conditions, and the radar all over his body was always on first-level alert.

finally got through the car and almost arrived at the door of her community, Tong Yan hurriedly said, "Teacher Ling, don't bother, you can let me go." ”

Ling Zesheng glanced sideways at her and parked the car on the side of the road.

Tong Yanru was pardoned, opened the door and jumped out of the car, and was about to turn his head to thank him, when he raised his eyes, he saw Ling Zesheng staring at her with one hand on the steering wheel.

"Tong Yan, do you really want to pretend that you don't know me?"
